I'm having some issues with org-clock-dosplay.

Screenshot here:

https://gist.github.com/nslater/10022848

Note:

- Times are indented like the nodes, meaning they don't line up. (I presume
this is intentional, but I find it annoying. Is there a way to turn it off?)

- Everything is highlighted with yellow. Is this intentional? Can I turn it
off?

- Why are some of the times blue and some white. Can I turn this off?

- Why are some of the "..." bits visible (in blue) and invisible (in white
for the subnodes) and can I turn these off, or hide them consistently?

- Would there be any way to move the black "..." bit meaning "this node can
be expanded" to the very left, where it usually is, and then hide the rest?

- Why can't I edit node names when this is active?

Thanks!

Noah

Fixed.

M-x customize-face RET org-clock-display RET

I changed from yellow to gray.

Because the face inherited from the headline face.
I changed it by specified a foreground.

The "..." folding indicator is always on the right, not sure what you
mean. 

> - Why can't I edit node names when this is active?

Because the display is temporary and uses overlays.

Thanks for this!

I've seen your comments on the time cookie thread. But I will pull the
org-clock-display comments here.

So, I have your changes locally, and I have a few comments.

A folded node looks like this:

* Node........................................ 02:10 ...

I was wondering if the "........................................" bit can
be hidden. Is there a font face to customise for this? I find it
distracting, especially with a big list of folded nodes.

The only problem then is: how do I match the times up with the nodes. I
guess this is the problem I was trying to solve with the clock cookies.

One option would be to highlight the time with a new face when the point is
on a node. Not sure about this though.

If the above is possible, then would it be possible to move that "..."
(after the clock total) to the left-hand side, so that it looks like this:

* Node...                                      02:10

i.e. What it normally looks like. Only with a "02:10" on the right hand
side.

The only other thing I'd want to change is the alignment of the times.

So right now, we have:

2d 18:10
7:30
11:32

(For instance.)

It would be great if these could be aligned so that:

- The ":" ran down the middle (single column)
- The hours were zero padded, so it was "07" and not "7"
- There was some padding for days

i.e. If there are no days, you add the space necessary so that the clock
time aligns with other nodes that have days.

Not sure how to calculate this. Perhaps it's possible to calculate the max
clock value before display, and pad everything to the width of that.

One radical alternative to all of the above:

Remove the "..................." stuff. Don't align the times. Just stick
them right after the node text, like a cookie.

As I say: I am more than happy to actually work on the patches necessary to
make these changes

Check latest master: I removed the dots.

This cannot be easily achieved, if at all.

From master, this should be aligned correctly now.

Well, not possible.

Done.

Yep -- please submit a patch for other changes you would like to
make.  Read http://orgmode.org/worg/org-contribute.html twice to
format the patches correctly :)

Huh, this is *very* cool. Thank you.

Now I need to solve the problem of being able to tie the node to the
clock-display. (If there's a big list, then it's hard to visually match
them.)

I think I recall a minor mode that highlighted the current line your point
is on. That would fix it. But then, it would be nice if that worked with my
mouse too.

Any ideas?

I think unless there's an obvious way to solve this, that it might actually
make sense to have the "......." bit visible by default, and provide an
option to turn it off for people who don't mind the way it looks.

Thoughts?

I'm not really sure what you mean by "tie the node to the clock-display".

M-x hl-line-mode RET

The dots have been removed, so really not sure what we are talking
about :)  But if you want to make the folding three dots "..." be
displayed differently, that's hard -- and I don't think it's worth
the time.

Ah, sorry.

So what I mean is, if you have a long list of lines like this:

* A                                                            5:10 ...
* B                                                            8:40 ...
* C                                                            2:50 ...

Then it is a bit tricky to see what time is clocked for, say, B.

It is easy above because there are only three nodes. But if you have 20
nodes, it gets tricky.

So my thinking was that previously the "...................." bits helped
to guide your eye across. But I am not so sure, you know. Because if you
have 20 of those in a row, it's not really helping much.

* A ........................................................... 5:10 ...
* B ........................................................... 8:40 ...
* C ........................................................... 2:50 ...

Again, this is easy when you just have three. But you have 20 in a row,
it's hard to follow.

So my idea was to use something like ln-line (thanks!) to show you where
you are. Then I can just navigate around the nodes, and it is obvious what
time matches up to what node.

Bit I'm wondering if you have any better ideas.

Or, given the readability problems, it makes sense to display the
"..............." bits by default. (Though I am not sure that they are
actually much more readable.)

This is one of the reasons I suggested an alternative approach: do not
align the times to the right at all, just stick them right next to the node
titles, like so:

* Apple 5:10 ...
* Bananas 8:40 ...
* Carrots 2:50 ...

As you can see, the times wont line up then, but matching them to the node
titles is easy.

Mhhh... I see.

Maybe we can use the background color for the whole headline?

But for now I'd like to let the dust settle on the current
implementation so that others can chime in if they have the same
problem.

and the Leuven theme (in the current trunk of the "to be" Emacs 24.4).

See (on http://screencast.com/t/hkFpXhQG) that there are 2 weirdnesses:

- The last letter of the headline text gets its height amplified when
  there is a following "time display".

- The ":" of the "phone" tag gets temporarily overlaid with an "m".

Almost, but not really.

See http://screencast.com/t/fmR5TJfa what happens to the size of the
titles, when the overlay is applied or removed.

Also, I did prefer (unlike Noah) when there were no "reading dots". Is
there a way to remove them, or at least to get them in a very light
gray, for example?

Best regards,
  Seb

They are completely removed for me.

Fixed, although I think this bug was present before I tweaked this
function.

I reinstalled the dots (different ones) with a shadow background:
having the dots is good to match the headline visually.

Can the dots use a custom face? I'd like to customise the colour (by
perhaps turning it off).

It uses the shadow face.

M-x customize-face RET shadow RET

Hmm. Okay. It might be a good idea to have org-clock-shadow or something,
so it can be customised separately. I might want to hide the dots, but
still have shadow as a useable face.

Let me resist to this for a while: I'm not fan a having a separate
face for everything in Org, especially transient display.  Also,
maybe you can try adapting shadow and see where this face is used
elsewhere?

If you don't like to add a face, then I'd also favor the possibility to
turn off the display of dots -- without having to touch the shadow face.

Best regards,

Well, I don't want to add a face for the same reasons I don't want
adding an option: we are really in the bikeshed zone here, let's just
live with it.

I guess Sebastien's point is that without a custom face, the only way to
turn the dots off is to set the shadow face to be hidden. But that could
have unintended side-effects. So if there's no custom face, then there
should be a config so that people can turn it off without having to deal
with those side-effects.

My point is that all this is not important, I'd rather have us all
focused on more pressing issues.  Hope you both understand,
